Pros

Small Finance/accounting team helps know each other well and make good relationship between employees

Cons

Extreme Favoritism. Subordinates are heard saying "make sense" to everything their managers say to please them. Promotion and opportunities are given to one who say "make sense" and do things to please managers. Capable people don't last longer.

Pros

-Great and hardworking people/coworkers -Decent pay and benefits package -Good location/ free parking -Free coffee

Cons

-Very top -down management, very Corporate America style and demanding -People are treated like workhorses with no appreciation, long hours up to 14 hours worked. Some weeks I worked 60-70 hours. Pushy and demanding. Unreasonable expectations for physical work. -Pay cheque is always messed up -Looked down upon and made to feel guilty for taking time off including vacation. Horrible after working so many hours in a week! -Previous HR Manager was caring and helpful, new HR keeps getting hired and are no where to be found and issues are ignored. Higher up HR pretend to care but will look for a way to fire you if you express an issue and will find a way to turn blame on you so they can avoid what's going on. -Lots of favouritism and back biting. They will bully you until you quit -Stressful and unhealthy work environment -Avoid this place. Used to be a great place to work, they no longer care about their employees. Zero recognition
